even when he sneaks out at night it is only to look at the stars, I believe this is Saruman to Wormtongue?

Pipe Answer?

“Soft as butter they can be, and yet sometimes as tough as old tree roots,” was said by Gandalf to Frodo in The Shadow of the Past, FotR.

"Maybe the paths that you each shall tread already laid before your feet, though you do not see them."

I just felt like answering something, although I have no idea who said it. I recall a warping of this line from the movie, but I think perhaps in the book it was Elrond?

Gosh that really does show how well Tolkien gave each character a "voice" cos it sounded like Pip but I still can't place the quote

Mithalwen, the 'beard-curling' quote is found toward the very end of the chapter entitled Flotsam and Jetsam. Pippen is saying that Gandalf's beard would curl if he had ent-draught to drink!
